The Spirit of Healing


the space between therapist & patient with Petrea King (Aus)

One day seminar on Saturday April 14th ‘07 @ St Columba CentreVermont St Ponsonby Auckland 10am to 4.30pm

An inspirational & entertaining speaker, Petrea will help us explore the healing space between therapist & patient. Clarity and compassion being two of our most valuable assets when we are assisting people in their healing journey yet these two qualities can quickly disappear amongst the busyness of a day’s work. Connecting with the collaborative potential that exists between patient and therapist is where the true spirit of healing is found. What makes this space possible and how can we cultivate a connection with the present moment so that the potential for healing is realized. To help us along the way- maintaining our equanimity in the midst of rapid change and the role of intuition in the medical/healing arts.

Health & Happiness

living positively with cancer with Petrea King (Aus)

One day seminar on Thursday April 12 ’07 at St Columba Centre
Vermont St Ponsonby Auckland 10am to 4.30pm

Based on her Quest for Life Foundation work in Aus, Petrea brings such valuable experience, joy & good fun to her workshop, covering topics such as meditation, attitude and how it impacts our health, the four qualities of peace, food for life and healing. An enjoyable & heart-lifting day is expected! This seminar is a must for those living with cancer, for carers & for interested health professionals, therapists, counsellors & psychologists working with clients with health issues.

Petrea King is a well-known author, inspirational speaker, counsellor and workshop leader. She is also qualified as a naturopath, herbalist, clinical hypnotherapist, yoga and meditation teacher.

In 1983 Petrea was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia and was not expected to live. Meditation and the integration of past traumatic experiences, including the suicide of one of her brothers, became paramount in her recovery, much of which was spent in a monastery near Assisi in Italy. She has been meditating since the age of 17.

Petrea has counselled individually or through residential programs tens of thousands of people living with life-challenging illnesses, grief, loss, trauma and tragedy. She is at the forefront of wellness education and is a frequent lecturer at medical and other conferences. Petrea sees crisis as a catalyst for spiritual growth and understanding and as an opportunity for healing and peace.

Petrea established the Quest for Life Foundation in 1990 and the Petrea King Quest for Life Centre in 1998, in Bundanoon, NSW. More than 60,000 people have attended residential programs with Petrea and her team since 1985. She also lectures and conducts workshops around Australia and overseas.

Petrea has written six books, Quest for Life ~ A handbook for people with life-threatening illness, Spirited Women ~ Journeys with Breast Cancer, Sometimes Hearts Have to Break ~ 25 inspirational stories of healing and peace, Your Life Matters ~ The Power of Living Now a children’s book, You, Me & the Rainbow and a cookbook, Food for Life which details the recipes served at the Quest for Life Centre. An acclaimed documentary was jointly commissioned by Channel 4 (UK) and the ABC called Quest for Life – A Year in the Life of Petrea King. Petrea has received the Advance Australia Award and the Centenary Medal for her contribution to the community and was nominated for Australian of the year in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. www.questforlife.com.au

The Power of Presence with Rose Diamond

Bringing consciousness into everyday life.


Are you finding it challenging to balance doing with being?
Does your mind chatter, distract and bully you?
Would you like to learn how to step out of old emotional patterns in relationships?
What stops you from being in the Now?

This 5-week series offers an opportunity to create a learning community where you can:
  • Practice being conscious in the present moment.
  • Become more aware of your own process and release blocks to creativity.
  • Connect more vibrantly with your experience as you become more grounded.
  • Move from your head to your heart.
  • Reduce stress and discover simplicity.
  • Learn how relationship troubles can be doorways to enlightenment.
  • Explore the teachings of Eckhart Tolle, author of “The Power of Now.”


"True creativity flows only from stillness. When stillness becomes conscious, the spiritual dimension enters your life and you begin to be guided by an intelligence far greater than the human mind." Eckhart Tolle

Facilitator: Rose Diamond

As a Gestalt therapist I've been practising awareness, presence and following the creative process for 25 years. A few years ago Eckhart Tolle's teachings gave me additional, simple skills and understandings which have been life changing. Evolving consciousness is my passion and I'd love to share my skills with you.
